Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 1366

"What's going on?" Edgar asked after he went downstairs and boarded the Jeep. There was only cold ice present in his sharp eyes. "Why did someone die?"

The dignified-looking driver, Gordon, glanced at Edgar, then at Daniel, who gestured for him to set out. Gordon gulped down his nervousness, squared his shoulders, and drove for Eagle.

There was heavy silence inside the car. The tension was so thick that one could cut it with a knife.

Gordon shuddered at the thought of Edgar losing his patience. Daniel sighed and retold the whole story to Edgar.

There was an army deserter in the armored brigade. They sent people to trace him. Then someone from Eagle got involved and joined the chase. Something strange happened. The deserter managed to escape, but the man who was responsible for the chase was killed by the man from Eagle. It was made to appear that the whole charade was true. But whatever the truth was, people from Eagle knew nothing about this. This was the only explanation given by Mr. Wang. Now the man from Eagle was locked in a closed guard chamber and no one could come visit him.

The closed guard chamber was said to be a horrible place. It didn't have any light or windows. Just pure nothingness. It was like being trapped in a void. It could turn someone mad. Its terror could fill up the human heart and no one knew what could happen next. That was not even the worse part. To destroy any glimmer of reason, they used the sound of a clock ticking.

The man in the closed guard chamber would never know what would happen.

Daniel finished his story, wiping the sweat off his forehead with a small towel. Eyebrows were tightly knitted as Edgar was deep in thought and the finally told Gordon, "Hey, don't go back. Go to the closed guard chamber."

"Yes, sir!" Gordon immediately shifted the car to a different direction.

"W-wait, are you serious? You're going to the closed guard chamber now?" Daniel asked puzzled.

"I am always serious," Edgar replied.

Initially, Edgar didn't had any plans tonight but the situation had forced him to make an action. He knew that if it was his man's fault, Eagle would surely take the responsibility whether it was intentional or by accident. But if it wasn't, the one who tried to make false charges against Eagle would be in big trouble.

When they arrived at the closed guard chamber, Edgar didn't walk in directly. Instead, he went towards the duty room and peered at the soldier through the security cameras. He noticed that the Eagle soldier who used to be energetic looked gloomy. Generally speaking, an ordinary person could endure one day in the closed guard chamber. A trained soldier could endure around three days and a special soldier could endure five days or even more. The soldier didn't behave as expected.

Maybe it was because a life was involved, or maybe the whole thing was a huge blow to him. His current state was even worse than an ordinary person.

"Can you tell me what's happening inside?" Edgar asked, putting a hand under his chin.

The man on duty, who looked pale, took a deep breath before replying, "At first, he was silent and kept pacing in circles. After three hours, he started to cry and scream, saying that he shouldn't be blamed. He only calmed down after crying for two hours."

Edgar squinted his eyes and said firmly, "Bring him out."
